Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
At MindFit, we know that insomnia and difficulties with sleep can be extremely challenging, frustrating, and exhausting. Our skilled clinical and health psychologists, provide Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) - a structured, brief, and evidence-based approach to managing challenging and frustrating symptoms associated with insomnia/sleep difficulties. CBT-I generally involves identifying thoughts and behaviours contributing to sleep challenges, reframing misconceptions, and introducing helpful behavioural practices (e.g., relaxation training, sleep control) to improve sleep habits. Additional sleep hygiene strategies (including use of a sleep diary to track wake and sleep times) may be discussed.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
I believe sleep is one of the most important factors in general health with broad impacts on recovery, performance, and general quality of life. Understanding why our sleep hygiene or quality of sleep has begun degrading is the first step in remedying our sleep. When it comes to sleep, there is so much to learn and implement, and that is why I focus heavily on creating a comprehensive treatment protocol for clients struggling with their sleep.

Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although it is normal to experience problems sleeping, these disturbances are usually quickly resolved. A sufferer of a sleep disorder will struggle to fall asleep as a regular occurrence, thus not being able to cycle through the stages of sleep. This leads to an inability to rest and restore energy, which often leads to problems with communication, relationships, concentration, decision making, work responsibilities, and/or general daily functioning. Furthermore, a lack of sleep can create significant emotional upheaval, including increased irritability, agitation, and anxiety.
